In this thread, you can lobby and discussion nominations and all that good stuff. You are also welcome to open threads in the individual ship forum, the art forum and elsewhere - it's all good!

Double post, but in response to a question -

Do drabbles have to be archived to be nominated?

Answer: Yes!


So, if you want to nominate a drabble from our many drabble threads, feel free to pm the writer and ask them to archive it. It's just way easier to link to something in the archive than in the forum threads.

This is all exciting! But I'm certainly going to have to get a move on if I want to have any part in this. There is no chance OS will be finished by August. BSaBS is very unlikely too. I'm going to have to get reading too. Good luck to everyone!

You are correct, Destinye! I wanted to announce the awards early, so people who can finish their fics and want a shot can do so.

But, any story not finished by August 1st will be eligible next year.

I might try a hand at a short story, just to see how it goes.

Hmm... I don't think Vox Solis will be done in time. I could do something else.

Do a short story perhaps?
